Automotive Color Code Spray Paint with VerniciSpray® Internal manufacturing

If you're looking for an "almost right" result, we're not for you

If all you want is a generic "spray paint by color code," you'll find plenty of options online. The problem is that the code itself is often not the real issue: process consistency is. Small variations in mixing, viscosity, filling, or spray delivery can turn a touch-up into a "similar" color that gives the job away in direct sunlight. We speak to those who want a serious touch-up, a clean blend, or a carefully executed repair ‐ without accepting compromises. VerniciSpray® was created for this reason: we don't just sell a color, we deliver a controlled production method designed to make results repeatable. This approach suits both advanced hobbyists (who represent most of our demand) and professionals who expect chromatic and mechanical consistency.

VerniciSpray® is not pre-filled spray: the difference between resale and production

In a specialized shop, it's normal to find products from different brands side by side, and this can create confusion. In our catalog you may also find "pre-filled" spray cans from third-party brands that we resell but do not manufacture. VerniciSpray® branded paints follow a different path: they are not pre-filled. This means we don't start from a container already set up with standard, off-the-shelf logic ‐ we manage in-house the phase that truly makes the difference between a "commercial" product and a controlled one. If you want to understand why some touch-ups work and others don't, you need to look at what happens between the color formula, viscosity control, and final packaging. Our offer is clear: VerniciSpray® is in-house, made-to-order production, while third-party products remain third-party products, with their own characteristics and logic.

In-house production: from OEM color code to finished product, everything under control

When we say "in-house production," we don't mean a marketing slogan ‐ we mean a sequence of operations managed internally, by the same team and to the same standards. The process starts with the customer's request (OEM color code, brand, model, and relevant details) and ends with a ready-to-use product, without delegating critical steps to external parties. This matters because automotive paint is not just a "color", it's a system that must: spray properly, lay down evenly, dry as expected, and remain consistent. That's why we invested in a digital tintometer and an autonomous aerosol filling system: we mix, control, and package in a traceable way, linking each job to its order and production logs. In practical terms, if something doesn't add up, we can trace what was done and intervene with method.

The stages of the VerniciSpray® production cycle

To help you understand what you're buying ‐ and why this approach is different ‐ we outline the main stages in a clear but technical way. These are not "convenience steps": they are real controls that stabilize the process and reduce variables that, in paintwork, lead to rework and visible differences. Automotive paint by color code must meet consistent parameters to be reliable: quantity, flow, spray performance, color response, and gloss. Below are the operational steps we follow for every order. What matters is that, with VerniciSpray®, the process is managed end to end: one responsibility, one control chain, one objective ‐ delivering a product that works properly when you apply it.

• Customer order verification: consistency check of color code, brand, and model.
• Mixing with digital tintometer: dosing up to two decimal places for maximum precision.
• Viscosity control: measurement using DIN Cup / Ford Cup 4 standards for more predictable application.
• Filling from empty aerosol cans: in-house production, not pre-filled.
• Valve application: internal valving and crimping to control product delivery.
• Functional testing: weight check and spray test on cap (color test) before shipping.

Instrumental controls: why quality is repeatable

If a company talks about "superior quality" but doesn't explain how it measures it, it's just making promises. We prefer to declare concrete controls, because they are the foundation of repeatability. In automotive refinishing ‐ especially with metallics and sensitive colors ‐ it takes very little to change the final perception: out-of-spec viscosity, irregular spray delivery, or inconsistent gloss can result in a finish that doesn't visually integrate with the rest of the painted body panel, such as a door, fender, hood, or tailgate. That's why, for every order, we perform instrument-based checks: viscosity with DIN Cup / Ford Cup 4, gloss with a digital glossmeter, and color matching with a colorimeter. We also add spray tests and mechanical checks such as scratch resistance. This isn't overkill ‐ it's what saves you time during application and finishing.

What we check on every VerniciSpray® order

Our controls are a real advantage: a glossmeter, for example, verifies that gloss levels are consistent with the expected standard; a colorimeter helps confirm chromatic accuracy; the DIN Cup / Ford Cup 4 measures fluidity and supports consistent application. These tools don't replace the painter's skill, but they reduce variability in the product you receive at home or in the body shop. The point is simple: with automotive spray paint by color code, you want the product to behave predictably, so you can focus on surface preparation, masking, spray distance, and timing ‐ instead of fighting a "temperamental" material.

• Weight: quantity and filling consistency check.
• Spray test: verification of functionality and delivery regularity.
• Viscosity (DIN Cup / Ford Cup 4): application and atomization stability.
• Gloss (digital glossmeter): visual uniformity.
• Color matching (colorimeter): chromatic correspondence check.
• Scratch resistance: mechanical verification, where applicable.

Available formats: 400 ml spray, 100 ml jar, 20 ml touch-up pen

A common mistake is choosing the format based only on price or convenience. In reality, the format should match the job: a thin scratch doesn't require the same solution as a bumper or larger panel, and an advanced hobbyist may prefer a touch-up pen with brush for micro-repairs, while a professional may want a jar for airbrush or spray gun use. We produce the same color code in three main formats, so you can choose what best fits your application without changing production standards. The 400 ml spray can is the most requested because it balances performance and convenience; the 100 ml jar is ideal for those who want maximum control over application and dilution; the 20 ml pen is perfect for small, fast, and precise corrections.

• 400 ml spray can: for medium touch-ups, panels, and applications requiring uniform spray.
• 100 ml jar: for airbrush/spray gun and more controlled work.
• 20 ml touch-up pen with brush: for localized micro touch-ups and precise interventions.

24/7 production and shipping: what it really means (and what it doesn't)

Saying "24 hours" only makes sense if you understand what it includes. For us, it means that, on average in Europe, your order is produced and handed over for shipping quickly, because we work made-to-order with an optimized process. It does not mean identical, shelf-ready batches ‐ in fact, on a single day we can produce up to 500 spray cans, all in different colors. This is the opposite of mass production and requires method, not improvisation. In this context, traceability isn't a traditional batch number: the reference is the order number, which allows us to trace the formula and the digital tintometer logs, and reconstruct production in case of doubts or anomalies. It's operational, concrete traceability that's genuinely useful to the customer.

How to order your automotive paint by color code (without mistakes)

The best way to achieve a consistent result is to start with correct data. The OEM color code is the key, because it avoids guessing among similar variants and reduces the risk of buying the wrong shade of color. Once the code is entered, choose the format (400 ml spray, 100 ml jar, or 20 ml touch-up pen) based on the type of repair, surface area, and equipment you'll use. If you're unsure, the best choice is not to buy random, but to ask for technical support: we'll guide you toward the most sensible solution to avoid waste and rework. Remember that product quality is only part of the equation ‐ surface preparation, cleaning, primer (if needed), spray technique, and drying times, all of this matter. That's exactly why a more stable, controlled product helps: it leaves you with fewer variables to manage during application.

Who VerniciSpray® is for: advanced hobbyists, body shops, restorers, and fleets

VerniciSpray® branded paints are designed for those who take refinishing seriously ‐ even when working in a garage. Advanced hobbyists want a touch-up that doesn't look like a touch-up, without relying on trial-and-error cycles; detailers seek finish quality and consistency; mid-to-high-end body shops and restorers want repeatability and instrument-based control; collectors and classic car specialists demand respect for originality; industries and fleets need standards, fast turnaround, and replicable results. In all these cases, the difference is made by a serious production process, not a slogan. If your priority is to save as much as possible and accept compromises, there are alternatives. If instead you want automotive paint by color code built with method ‐ digitally mixed, instrument-checked, and internally packaged from empty cans ‐ you're in the right place.

Frequently asked questions: straight answers

Are VerniciSpray® paints pre-filled?

No. VerniciSpray® branded paints start from empty spray cans: we fill them internally and apply (crimp) the valve in-house. In our shop you may find pre-filled products from third-party brands that we resell, but these are separate lines. This distinction matters because our value proposition is based on controlling the entire process up to the finished product, not on a standard, pre-packaged solution. To properly evaluate the value of in-house production, you need to consider the full chain: mixing, application parameters, instrumental controls, and packaging. That's where the variables that often lead to "almost right" colors are reduced.

How do you ensure color repeatability?

Repeatability isn't magic ‐ it's control and traceability. We work made-to-order and link production to the order number, which is the key to tracing the formula and the digital tintometer logs. On top of that, we check parameters that truly affect results, such as viscosity (DIN Cup / Ford Cup 4), gloss (digital glossmeter), and color matching (colorimeter), along with spray tests and mechanical checks. This approach reduces the risk that two orders of the same color code behave differently during application. As always, surface prep and the painter's technique matter ‐ but a stable product makes achieving a consistent result much easier.

How long does it take to receive the paint?

On average in Europe, we aim for 24 hours total between production and shipping, because we've internalized the process and built an organization designed for fast fulfillment across diverse orders. Shipping the goods doesn't mean that you will receive them within 24 hours. We make sure to fulfill the order and entrust it to the courier within 24 hours, then delivery times may change accourding to the type of courier choosen, to the destination of the goods and to ZIP code. The operational goal remains the same: to produce on demand and ship quickly, without sacrificing controls or product consistency. If you have urgent needs or professional jobs with deadlines, technical support can help you choose the fastest and most suitable solution.
